Are you able to prove one that came true?
If you can then I may give it a go...until then why waste the time hoping for something that may or not come true?

"And yet it moves !"
by Phizzy ingalileo is said to have uttered, or probably muttered these words in front of the inquisition after supposedly having reacanted his teaching that the solar system is heliocentric, as his predecessors kepler and copernicus had worked out.
(and a guy in 3rd century b.c greece !).
why was galileo unable to go back to his belief held by him in his youth, and nearly all people in christendom, that the earth was at the centre of the solar system and all the planets revolved around it ?.

Oh my! It seems that the power of mind control is dismissed or forgotten By those who have been freed.
Anything presented by anyone except the WT approved had to be quickly dismissed as coming from satin.
My mind would not allow me to consider anything contrary to WT based beliefs!
But not now! Since I have been freed...why? I do not know however I am so relieved that I am!
Some have expressed to me how fortunate I am because most who were indroctinated arent so "lucky".

My 45 Minute Conversation With JWs Today
by cofty inas i was saying before the watchtower literature trolley has arrived in my little town.... my wife and i were in town this afternoon and i saw one of my former elder colleagues standing beside the trolley talking to a young man and reading to him from one of their books.
ray was one my least favourite people - he was everything that is bad about jw elders.
i went up to them and interrupted and told the man that this is a cult recruitment campaign.

**He wanted to discuss creation but his best argument was "there are still monkeys in the zoo"
call me dumb ass...but I said that also. I took what I was told from the GB-WT and never looked as to why this would be a stupid remark.
Perhaps less ridicule and more education is in order! Ignorance is not stupid...someone just dosent have the facts or knowledge.
Cofty...glad u treated them with respect!

We had one stuffed in our door today. My wife said it was fitting since she was sitting on the pot when they came. So she flushed the toilet but the invite was still there!

Did you count the time for your "hour talk"?
by compound complex inhi fellow speakers (sorry, brothers only!):.
my first public talk, given in my early 20s, was actually a twenty-minute part of a symposium talk.
my pioneer partner friend and i each had twenty minutes and a "servant" had the concluding part.

Why did God test Abraham?
by jws inwhen jws come around with their articles asking "is god cruel?
", i often point them to genesis 22:2:.
2 then god said, take your son, your only son, whom you loveisaacand go to the region of moriah.

Aroq: God knows before hand everything
So then...Jehovah knew the outcome of what would happen in the garden of Eden?
**if so then he's an evil pos..! he should not be worshiped, he should be ashamed and ask for forgiveness. Then make it right!
It now appears to me that these are all stories made up by humans to control others! F-them

I survived a 3-hour manipulation session with 2 elderettes!
by Faithful Witness ini'm not sure how else to describe this meeting at my kitchen table.
my elderette ("miss k") arrived with her friend in tow.
i vaguely remember the 2nd lady ("miss w") from the times we went to the kh, but like miss k, we never really talked in depth.

Terry:
Stick with the question: HOW did the FDS come up with things that needed to be changed?
- Stick with the question: Where does old light come from?
Stick with the question: Why demand loyalty to something that changes
---------------------
- Excellent question...so simple yet a powerful one.
